Mysterious underground city found under Egyptian pyramids
A team of Italian scientists believe the structures were built about 38,000 years ago and preceded tens of thousands of years on the oldest known artificial structure of that kind
The mysteries of the Egyptian pyramids have fascinated humanity for centuries, but the latest research by a scientific team can shake the foundations of the history we know. Italian researchers claim to have discovered evidence of a huge underground city hidden more than one kilometer below the Giza highland in Egypt. If their analysis proves to be accurate, this can completely change our understanding of ancient Egypt and its technological advances.
The team used a specialized algorithm
Skeptical experts, on the other hand, warn that there is no solid scientific evidence of such claims. Is it really under the pyramids of a forgotten city or is this just another theory without any basis in reality?
A team of scientists from Italy presented research claiming to have discovered wells and chambers tens of meters under the Cafe pyramid. Researchers have said they have found « probability levels over 85 percent » that the structures identified under the pyramid of Kafre, as well as those below the other pyramids of the Giza Highlands, exist. The wells and chambers were identified by sending high -frequency electromagnetic waves below the basics of the pyramid, and the way the signals were returning allowed researchers to map the structures below the surface.
– The team used a specialized algorithm to process the data and create images showing what wells look like with spiral formations that lead to huge chambers. They were checking the structures with well -known architectural forms, especially those available to us today, such as Pos Di San Patricio in Italy – said Nicole Chicole, a project spokeswoman.
Team work has not yet been published in a scientific journal
Professor Lawrence Conner, a Denver University Radar Expert, who focuses on archeology and has not been involved in the study, says that in order to create correlation levels of probability, there must be something to connect or compare.
– What could be that here? Without that, these percentages are scientifically meaningless – he says.
Professor Conjers, however, suggests that it is imagined that under the pyramids there could be small structures, such as manholes and chambers, because they were probably there before the pyramids were built, given that the location was « special for ancient people ».
He noted that both the Mayan and other peoples in Ancient Meso -America often built pyramids at the entrances to the caves or buried temples, which had a ceremonial significance for them.
The work of Corado Balanga from the University of Pisa in Italy, Filippo Biondi of Stratklaid University in Scotland and Egyptologist Armando Mei has not yet been published in a peer -reviewed scientific journal. The team sent its analysis directly to the Daily Mail and acknowledged that « they recommend additional checks through additional tomographic scans and on -site checking. »
To determine if something was hidden under the pyramid of Cafe, they sent waves with high frequency (similar to the radar) in the ground under the pyramid. When the waves hit something under the pyramids, they bounced on the surface. Observing how the frequency of these waves changes, scientists could determine which materials were underground.
Although the team from Italian scientists said « there is the greatest respect for Egyptologists » and that their findings are based « on objective measurements obtained through advanced radar signal processing », Dr. Zahi Hawas, a former Minister of Antiquities of Egypt, said the claim to use Radar.
